I was recently remidned of a video I saw in chemistry class a couple years back, where it was a really hilarious short (< 5 minutes) "documentary" of what the world would look like without a certain element. It was a fairly common element, metal or metalloid, and I think it had a 1-2 syllable name.

Highlights from the video that I remember include:

-A car exploding.
-A woman's husband just dropping dead cause his pacemaker wouldn't work without the element.
-Various appliances exploding.

It was a really hilarious video, and I can't seem to find it. I want to say it was something like "nickel," but ya.

Has anyone seen this video and perchance know what it is/where I can find it?

Cheers xD

Promethium is the element I think, right?

(I just googled Element in pacemaker, I dont know the video was hoping to jog your memory to help.)

Definitely not promethium; it was also seemed like an old-ish video if that helps. Like more than a decade old, maybe more.

There's a Simpsons episode where they watch a film like this where the world has no zinc. The kid's car has no battery, and he loses his GF, then he tries to shoot himself but there's no zinc in the firing pin so nothing happens.
